Verdict

MORAAWED never threatened the winner when fourth over today’s trip at Kempton on his debut but that’s still the best piece of form on offer and normal progress should see Roger Varian’s charge thereabouts at the finish. The Night Watch wasn’t beaten far at Doncaster on his introduction but that was over 6f in soft ground. But he looks the the biggest threat on that form given the others with experience have shown little so far. Jungle Warfare is related to the winner of a seller and Jim Crowley prefers the chances of the selection to those of the newcomer Furqaan.
